Ingredients

• 1 cup Honey
• 2 tablespoons Red Chili Flakes
• 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Pour the honey into a small saucepan and warm it over medium-low heat. Be cautious not to bring it to a boil; you just want it gently heated.

Step 2

Add the red chili flakes into the warmed honey, stirring to incorporate them evenly.

Step 3

Mix in the apple cider vinegar and salt. Continue to stir for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and let the honey mixture simmer gently for about 5 to 7 minutes. This will infuse the honey with the spicy heat of the chili flakes.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and set it aside to cool slightly.

Step 6

Once cooled, strain the hot honey into a clean jar or bottle, using a fine mesh sieve to remove the chili flakes. If you prefer to keep the flakes in for a more intense spice, you can skip this step.

Step 7

Seal the jar and store it at room temperature. Use as a drizzle or dip as desired.
